Fauna was a delightful place to stay in Montevideo. It is an easy walk from the boat to Fauna, and Geronimo is super-friendly and helpful. The living room is very comfortable, and we enjoyed coffee there in the morning and after-dinner drinks there before we went to bed. The old city is charming, and Geronimo had excellent suggestions about where to go to eat.

Beautiful boutique hotel right in the heart of the centro historico, with easy access to restaurants and tourist attractions. Plus the attentive service provide by its owner, Jeronimo, is next to none.

Great little boutique hotel, located in the Old Town of Montevideo. Really close to the Buquebus ferry terminal from Buenos Aires. Jeronimo, really helpful and reached out to me night before about my arrival from BA and allowed for early check in. Hotel located within walking distance to historic sites and restaurants, hotel really quiet and clean. Definitely recommend staying here.

This was a gift I gave to my son and his girlfriend: 2 nights stay at Fauna. My son said this was one of the best hotels he ever stayed in. Absolutely loved everything about it and can’t stop bragging how great his stay was. I thank the owner and staff for an amazing experience!

10/10

This hotel is lovely! The check-in was easy, the room was beautiful, and it had lots of nice amenities. I wish we could have stayed more than one night. The neighborhood had several places to eat within walking distance and the ocean is a block or so away.

I’m in love with this place! The owners are spectacular and so helpful. I will definitely return and tell my friends about it.

Fauna was absolutely superb! The location was great, the rooms were great. Everything about it was fantastic. Jeronimo is an excellent host! He made us feel extremely welcome during our short stay in Uruguay. Highly, highly recommended!
2-night trip

10/10

This is a very clean and quiet small (10 rooms) hotel on the main walking street of the old city. Jerónimo and Soledad, the proprietors, are extremely friendly and helpful with making recommendations and reservations and go out of their way for their guests. Overall one of the best small hotel experiences that I have had. There is no restaurant or breakfast service but there are plenty of places nearby

FAUNA Montevideo is right in the heart of Ciudad Vieje so the perfect spot ot explore the city. Jeronimo is an amazing "host" to assist you with what to see and do. Highly recommend!

Our stay at Fauna Montevideo was nothing short of delightful. From the moment we arrived, Jeronimo provided a warm and welcoming reception, setting the tone for a wonderful experience. He was also incredibly kind in recommending cafes, bars, restaurants, and things to do and see, which made our time in Montevideo even more enjoyable. The hotel itself is absolutely gorgeous, with stunning decor that blends modern elegance with unique, thoughtful touches. Every corner of the space exudes charm, and even the subtle fragrance throughout the hotel adds to its inviting atmosphere. Our room was exceptionally comfortable, well-appointed with all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay. While the hotel doesn’t offer breakfast, they provide complimentary fresh fruit in the lobby, which is a lovely touch. The location is perfect for exploring Montevideo. Situated in the heart of the Old Town, it’s within walking distance of many historic sites, cafes, bars, and restaurants, making it an excellent base for discovering the city. Overall, Fauna Montevideo is a fantastic choice for travelers looking for a stylish, comfortable, and centrally located boutique hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed our two-night stay and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Montevideo!

Fauna is a lovely and whimsical boutique hotel in the heart of the old town of Montevideo. The hotel is tastefully decorated, welcoming, and very comfortable. The owners are extremely kind and provide a personal touch to the whole experience. This is definitely way better than staying at a regular big hotel chain. If you want a local experience, this is the play to stay! The rooms are unique and spotless, and the location is perfectly situated on the main walking street. Super close to the Port Market which is a great place to eat Uruguayan BBQ! Highly recommended overall!

Fauna Hotel is a boutique hotel in the old town area of Montevideo- it exceeded our expectations for so many reasons. Jeronimo and Solidad were exceptional hosts, ensuring our stay was a great experience. The hotel is an absolutely beautifully restored building with attention to every detail - very thoughtfully and tastefully finished! We found ourselves looking around constantly to absorb and appreciate the real beauty of the building! Location is also fantastic within walking distance to the main sites and attractions. The city of Montevideo is fortunate to have people with the skills and passion of Jeronimo and Solidad to restore such historic buildings. Wishing we had a longer stay!

I like to see and support the preservation and adaptive reuse of older structures—it’s environmentally-friendly and preserves a view of the former cityscape. The Ciudad Vieja area is morphing and a little gritty but feels real, not sanitized for tourists. The architect has done his work on this small hotel and capped it off with an extremely helpful and personable (and multilingual) staff. Breakfast isn’t served in the hotel but there are many small shops along the pedestrian street on which the hotel is located.

If perfection exists, it would be FAUNA. My stay was fantastic and Jero and Sero made sure that I not only enjoyed my stay at FAUNA, but in Montevideo. My room and the building were beautiful and extremely comfortable. I had a great night sleep each night of my three night stay. Jero provided so many incredible recommendations of places to eat and things to do without my even asking. They truly care that you have a wonderful time and I am so grateful. I can’t wait to stay at FAUNA again when I return to Montevideo.

FAUNA Montevideo was amazing. The hotel is small, but so charming. The rooms are very spacious with everything you need. Only downside is there is no breakfast, but they do offer free fruit and coffee that is available all the time. It is located right on the main pedestrian walkway with many restaurants and stores within blocks. The host is incredible--available 24/7 for any questions or needs. He also gave many restaurants and activity recommendations that were very good. I highly recommend staying here if you have the chance--best hotel I've stayed at my entire world trip!
